INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
TO: Transportation and Infrastructure Services Committee
FROM: Hari Ponnekanti, Public Works Director/City Engineer
BY: Adam Cox, Transportation Project Manager
CC: Mayor Allan Ekberg
DATE: May 21, 2021
SUBJECT: Annual Bridge Inspections and Repairs Update
Project No. 91610402
2020 Presentation on the State of the City's Bridges
ISSUE
Provide the Transportation and Infrastructure Services Committee with information about the status of the City's bridge
program and inventory, showing the overall condition of the City's bridges after completion of the 2020 inspections.
BACKGROUND
The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) require
regularly -scheduled inspections of all the City's vehicle -carrying bridge structures. The City extends this effort to include
its pedestrian bridges. This requirement allows for continuity in reporting, as well as the opportunity to identify and
potentially fund bridges in need of replacement and rehabilitation.
ANALYSIS
The City currently owns 23 bridges (16 traffic bearing and 7 pedestrian). Of those, two are jointly owned jurisdictional
bridges with shared ownership between the City of Renton (Grady Way) and the City of Kent (S 196th/200). The bridge
structure types vary from steel through truss, pre -cast concrete girders, cast -in-place concrete girders, steel girder, wood
girder, and steel tied arch spans. The discussion will focus on why the City inspects its bridges, where the City stands
with respect to the state and the country, and recommendations for additional steps that can be taken to address known
issues. There were no new key findings or major concerns observed during the 2020 inspections.
The following structures were inspected in 2020:

The City of Tukwila maintained its compliance with the FHWA-mandated inspections and record keeping in 2017 and
2019 through federal funding awards. The City continues to maintain its compliance with the FHWA and has applied for
federal funding through the Local Bridge Program (formally known as BRAC) for the 42nd Ave S Bridge Replacement
Project. Currently, results for the Local Bridge Program selection is expected in fall 2021.
FISCAL IMPACT
The cost for King County to perform the 2020 inspections was $20,525.00, and the estimated cost to perform the 2021
inspections is $28,010.00.
The following dollar amounts have been spent on the City's Annual Bridge Repair and Maintenance program since 2010:

Executive Summary
The City currently has ownership of 23 bridges (16 traffic bearing and 7 pedestrian). Of those, two are jointly
owned jurisdictional bridges with shared ownership between the City of Renton (Grady Way) and the City of Kent
(S 196th/200). The different types of bridge configuration vary from steel through truss, pre -cast concrete girders,
cast -in-place concrete girders, steel girder, wood girder, and steel tied arch spans.
Currently the City has a total of five (5) bridges that have a sufficiency rating between 80 to 100; six (6) bridges
that have a sufficiency rating between 60 to 79; two (2) bridges that have a sufficiency rating between 40 to 59;
and three (3) bridges that have a sufficiency rating of 39 or less. Note, pedestrian bridges do not receive a
sufficiency rating. Please refer to the Quick Bridge Reference sheet for the break down of city owned bridges and
the assigned sufficiency rating.
The sufficiency rating formula provides a method of evaluating highway bridge data by calculating four (4)
separate factors to obtain a numeric value which is indictive of bridge sufficiency to remain in service. The result
of this method is a percentage in which 100 percent would represent an entirely sufficient bridge and zero (0)
percent would represent an entirely insufficient or deficient bridge. The formula considers the structural
adequacy, functional obsolescence, level of service and essentiality for public use.

Forward
The City Engineer's Bridge Inspection Report, dated April 2021, is published by the City of Tukwila Public Works
Department, and the information contained herein is the best available at the time of publication. It is to be
used as an information tool for planning and maintenance activities, and reflects the general condition of the
City's bridges. The repairs indicated are summarized for brevity from actual bridge inspection reports.
Background
The FHWA (Federal Highway Administration) issued the NBIS (National Bridge Inspection Standards) in 1971.
These standards established a comprehensive inspection for all federal highway system bridges. Minimum
qualifications were set forth for bridge inspectors. Specific types and frequencies of inspections for bridges were
established, and the reporting of certain standard information about each bridge was required. In 1978, these
requirements were extended to all public bridges carrying vehicular traffic.
A national bridge inspection program has been in place ever since, and state and local agencies have performed
bridge inspection in accordance with these guidelines. Inspections for the City of Tukwila's bridges are
conducted every two years unless conditions warrant additional inspections or frequencies as dictated by the
NBIS.

NOTES:
Bridge Rating is out of 100.
SD - Indicates the bridge structure is "Structural Deficient" as defined by the WSDOT (Washington State Department of Transportation) bridge inspection program. The structure is still safe for use by the public and the condition is being
monitored.
FO - Indicates the bridge structure is "Functionally Obsolete" as defined by the WSDOT (Washington State Department of Transportation) bridge inspection program. This designation only indicates the roadway geometrics do not meet
current standards for bridge design.
UBIT - Under Bridge Inspection Truck. This indicates the bridge needs special equipment in order to reach portions of the structure for inspection.
ADT - Average Daily Traffic
NA - Sufficiency ratings are not given on pedestrian facilities since they are not a part of the NBI system so a Suff. Rating of NA is given in that location.
All pedestrian bridges do not have a calculated sufficiency rating - they are not traffic loaded bridges and the rating numbers are not calculated per Federal Requirements
*Boeing Access Road over BNRR and Boeing Access Road over Airport Way SR will increase with the 2021 Bridge inpsections as both bridges recieved a seismic upgrade.

RE: Inspection of City of Tukwila Bridges
Dear Mr. Hash:
King County bridge engineers inspect the bridges owned by the City of Tukwila, in
accordance with agreements between the City of Tukwila and King County Depai linent of
Local Services. The bridge inspections were conducted as follows:
Interim Inspection
March 02, 2020 No. TUKxNx14, 42nd Ave South Bridge
UBIT Inspections
August 04, 2020 No. TUKxNx05, SC Blvd. Green River Bridge
No. TUKxNx15, Tukwila International Boulevard
Routine Inspections
August 19, 2020
No. TUKxNx18, Green River Ped & Utility Bridge
No. TUKxPx20, 180th Pedestrian Bridge
No. TUKxNx21, Fort Dent Park Bridge
No. TUKxPx22, Fort Dent Trail Bridge
Inventory Inspection
October 27, 2020 No. TUKxPx25, Tukwila Urban Center Ped Bridge
Enclosed are the reports from the bridge inspections and the actions we recommend you take
to maintain the bridges. We submit the data in the report to Washington State Department of
Transportation (WSDOT), in accordance with state and federal laws, to inform them of the

bridge's condition and to assure them the bridge has been inspected on a timely basis. The
information is incorporated into state and federal databases.
The bridge inspection report is divided into three main sections. The first section consists of
three parts: the National Bridge Inspection Standards (NBIS) elements, Load Capacity
Information, and Inspections Performed. The NBIS fields, which are numbered 1657 to 1687
are used for rating the components of the bridge. In general, the codes rate the components
from eight (best) to one (worst); however, other rating scales apply to some of the fields in
this first section. Explanations of these codes are found in the Washington State Bridge
Inspection Manual (http://www.wsdot.wa.gov/TA/Operations/BRIDGE/BIC.html).
The second section of the report, Bridge Management System (BMS) Elements, lists
quantities and rates them, breaking down the condition of each component into categories that
indicate how widespread a component is deteriorated. State 1 is best; State 4 is worst.
The third section consists of three parts: Notes, Repairs, and Inspection Resources Required.
The Notes section is comprised of information that provides details of the numbered fields in
the first two sections. Please note that any deficiencies listed in the "Repairs" section are
prioritized between 1 - High priority, and 3 - Low priority. The Resources Required section
indicates any special equipment or tools used to inspect the bridge.
I hope this letter helps you in reviewing these inspection reports. We recommend that the City
of Tukwila bridges continue to be inspected on a 24 -month schedule. Our next scheduled
inspections of the City of Tukwila Bridges will be in spring 2021. Please call Margaret
Germeaux at 206-477-3539 if you need any additional information. We appreciate assisting
your city with bridge engineering and inspection services.
Sincerely,
